An unprecedented success in Turkey upon it's release in 1996, Yavuz Turgul's quasi-mythic crime drama The Bandit is credited with kick-starting the Turkish film industry after domestic fare had failed to gain box office traction for years. Turkish film critic and historian Rekin Teksoy suggested the movie "brought Turkish audiences back into their seats".
About an old mountain outlaw who searches for revenge and his long-lost love after spending thirty-five years in prison, the film winds through colorful yet sordid sections of old Istanbul, and examines a clash between modernity and traditionalism in the Turkish underworld.
